De Stasios, 2011 Group Demonstrations
Communication Goals: Clarity, setting activity in conceptual context, eye contact
Format:
Provide a brief introduction to the concept, including how it fits into the larger scheme of evolutionary theory.
The demonstration should be visual or active and can involve other members of the class. It should involve props. It can be geared to any age student (K- college); tell us the targeted age group. Group members can be talking at the same time as something is happening.
The presentation should end with a brief conclusion that should explicitly state what parts of the concept have been modeled and what may have been left out (a meta-analysis).
Demonstrations should be ~10 minutes in length. The evaluation form that will be used to provide you with feedback is attached. Have a friend use it when you practice.
What to work on:
Content and Organization:
Does your demonstration fit the topic? The time allotted?
Do you have a succinct & clear explanation of the context of the demonstration?
Are instructions for the demo organized? Could someone else do the activity based on your presentation? Does the demonstration work?
Is there a brief explanation of how well the demonstration/activity modeled the concept?
Mechanics
Make eye contact with the audience when speaking
Speak loud enough and slow enough that we can all hear and understand
Keep nervous twitches: oral (um, like) and mechanical (brushing hair around) to a minimum.
Relax and smile -- we’re all on your side!
